np: hanson - if only

ok i know some people are totally gonna laugh at me for saying this, but i think hanson are one of the most underrated bands around. i know mmmbop was a piece of shit, but other than that, they are exceptionally talented. ok go on, laugh.

anyway, last time i blogged it was monday night. so we shall proceed with tuesday, which was the day for student host groups...which is basically an orientation group led by a senior student who would be considered an OGL i guess. so my host was a fifth year named rhianna...and she was the sweetest girl. and bloody tall too. so about 9 of us were assigned to her and we went around to faculty intro sessions, libraries, science buildings, com labs...basically everything we would need to know in first year. and she gave us good tips on where to get second hand stuff...which has already proved useful. i got my chem textbooks second hand for 90 bucks instead of the normal 250.

wednesday was no more host group...but a bunch of us who met in host group went around for subject information sessions together. there was a really funny incident around 4pm where one guy discovered that he had to go for a placement interview for his introductory chinese class, which he dint know about...so it was a mad scramble across campus to get there in time...haha ok it was quite funny in a heart-pounding-shit-i'm-gonna-die-if-i-miss-this kinda way.

today was clubs and societies day...and also the day i finally finished my enrolment and got my student ID and insurance card. finallyyyyyyyyy i've been fretting about this since friday. ya so anyway, clubs and societies...seeing as how i have to absolutely ACE first year, i dint join anything cos i wanna see what my workload is like first...but i did join SINGAPORE STUDENTS SOCIETY!! haha ok it sounds lame but there's a free barbeque and all sorts of get togethers...and hello, if there's a chance of eating singaporean food.... I AM SO IN!

speaking of food, i'm tired of instant noodles, pasta and bread. i really need something spicy. so this weekend i'm gonna go to the supermarket and see what i can find. maybe an instant tom yam soup or curry or something. if all else fails, i'm buying some chili padi and throwing it into everything i cook. especially the bloody instant noodles...which is not nearly half as tasty as cup noodles back home. i swear to God, Bedok South Road hawker centre has spoilt me for life. good food that is bloody cheap.

ok i'm craving sushi now...i have no idea why. maybe tmr i'll go and sample the sushi bar in school. its called plush fish...ha.

ooh sandhya daahling...john mayer will be in melbourne on 1st november...in st kilda...no idea how to get there...or how ex the tix are...but they're selling awfully fast...everywhere else is sold out...AND I CANT GET TO THE TICKETING WEBSITE....the internet is a bitch.

in other news...man u drew with reading in the FA cup...sigh that's highly disappointing...

and then they beat lille in the champs league...pretty rubbish game with a rubbish pitch...but one piece of brilliance by ryan giggs....have i mentioned that i love ryan giggs...and that we have the same birthday...well i'll say it again. for the 284739852749651 th time... I LOVE RYAN GIGGS AND I AM SO HONOURED THAT WE SHARE BIRTHDAYS! anyway, the lille players threatened a walk off...which i thought is something that only happens in lao ya competitions like ASEAN championships...but apparently not. and the police used tear gas on united supporters...cos some french bastard messed up the ticketing, and let too many united fans into too small a section of the stands. so when united fans climbed a fence to escape, police feared a pitch invasion and used tear gas. did they learn NOTHING from heysel and hillsborough? french bastards. hate them all.

ok enough ranting. its time to watch lost. that show has really lost the plot (pun FULLY intended)....but im watching it cos sawyer is the hottest thing on tv tonight.
